Now as much as I have it in the back of my mind that this may just be a spam to get me to visit the website … what the hell, hope springs eternal. But now I have to wonder … who the hell is it?

Ok, I confess. It was me. I didn’t do any sucking up to you in the ‘who would you like to date from this board’ topic, and I had to scramble for a way to cover my butt and make up for it. Just kidding.
Unless it specifically directs you to a profile for the person who “picked” you, I would consider it a spam to get you to their site. If, OTOH, someone really did indicate that they “like” you and provided this site with your email address, I hope you can uncover who it is. Although it’s kindof fun to have a secret admirer, it’s also kindof creepy. I know I wouldn’t like it one bit. Stalking is not my idea of the way to show interest in someone.
Good luck though!

Whoa! That’s scary…I just did some sucking up to you in the dating thread…not really for any reason, though. I guess I should clear my name…It was not I! I’m not known real well around here, so I don’t know if I’m suspect…But I don’t like you that way, Eutychus! I know you’re disappointed, so don’t cry too hard!

By chance did you complete one of their goofy tests? I have taken them all, and there is one that I took that “matches” you to other responses in the test. This was a topic a while ago and I forget the name of the test.
They have several tests if you haven’t been over there, they’re kind of funny.
Plus, you can see pictures through their web cam in which they claim are old rectal cameras from a surgeon, you gotta laugh at that.
Just checking in to say I got one as well today. I signed up and it asks you to put emails of your “crushes” into a file. These people are supposedly notified and enter their “crush list” as well. If someone on your list puts you on their list, voila! Instant match. Whatever. The Spark ends up with the email addresses of millions of lovesick people to do with as they will. Good ploy, actually. Wish I’d thought of it.
BTW, yes, TechChick, I have done a few of their “tests”, so that may be how they have my address.

Actually, someone really does like you. Or they’re trying to figure out who sent them one…I got the e-mail, not as spam–someone really had entered my e-mail address. I figured out who it was–neither of us liked each other “that way,” we were just trying to figure out who sent the e-mail to us. He thought I might have sent it to him, so he put in my address, and I thought he might have…well, you know. High school.
But it’s not spam, really. I matched up with someone…
Euty, I took the occasion to visit your webpage. Sweet face, beautiful wife & kids, swell eclectic links…what’s not to like? As well as the fact that you moderate this active section of the board with an even hand.
I got an email from spark.com as well. I seem to vaguely recall some thread here a month or so back that lead a lot of posters to go take their test(s) - I imagine everybody that did is getting emails from them about now.
Oh yeah, mine included a non-working link to get my matches. I guess I’ll have to stick with a lighter.
Got one. If you’re reading this, email me. Maybe I can catch up to my roommate in the scores I have posted on my door. Internet girlfriends are worth half a point.
